Krika provides great hair care and timely service for my family. The twists were moisturized well and look really pretty.

I visited Krika's salon last week and had a great experience. First, I appreciated the fact that she starts ON TIME!!! She also has early appointments -- as early as 6 am. LOVE IT! I have short hair (2 inches) and am at a point where I needed to learn new techniques/styles. Krika did comb coils for me and showed me how to do them myself (yeah right). I was in and out in less than 90 minutes. I also like her line of products that she used on my hair. The best part about that, there was no hard sell of the products at the end. I will definitely continue to visit the salon as my hair continues to grow out. Thanks Krika.

I visited the salon on the recommendation of a friend who has beautiful long locs. I have a short natural. I was pleased with the tapered shaping and wash and go I received. She was on time and I wasn’t shuffled between other customers. There was a calming presence in the shop devoid of drama, etc. I was in and out (with drying time) in under an hour. Her prices were comparable and honestly much better than some of the fancy salons I see charging hundreds of dollars for short natural hair. I’ve already made my next appointment.

I would not recommend Sophie Sunflower to anyone. She was referred to me. I told her I was allergic to hair dye and she did a patch test and everything was fine. I got my hair dyed just fine. She attempted to give me a highlight and my hair would not life. She did not test me with the highlight mixture. That night my face started to swell. I went to the emergency room for treatment. I let her know what happened. After I left the emergency room I went by her salon. She wanted me to pay around $83 for conditioner. I told her I would pay her when I got paid. She never called me the whole week to see how I was doing. She only called me for the money a week later. She never offered to treat my hair for free. My hair was long and has broken off. It was badly damaged. She should have known to test me on all the products she was going to use. She even said some people have a sensitivity to peroxide or ammonia. She never took responsibility and offered to get my hair back healthier. I told her you only care about money. She charged very high prices. I paid around 180 for color and no style. She said oh you want it styled. I went back to my old beautician to restyle it because she did a terrible job. She is all about money . Please find a educated, competent hairdresser. This happened in August and my hair has not grown back.

Beautiful customer service and was professional. She was kind and worked magic.

Omg she worked a miracle on my hair today. There was no wait, she listen to my hair concerns and I was in & out. I had a wash, trim, blow dry, and deep conditioner. Stylist trimmed a lot of damage and gave my hair a fresh start. I will definitely return.

Krika is a nice person. This was my second time going to her for a Pravana brown hair color to cover grays. She did a good job the first time. But since the first appointment she has downgraded locations and used water (yes water) to mix the color. That should have been a red flag because I don't know of any demi-permanent color instructions that say "add water." Alas, I deferred to her knowledge and expertise. Fast forward, my hair color came out black. I am pale. Black hair is not a good look against a pale face. Unfortunately, I didn't see it was black until the next morning when I was in my bathroom with better lighting than the salon. I was in tears. I was horrified. I called and texted several times to ask her for help (i.e. how can we or I fix this) but she never responded.

Not good

This salon is not like any others I've been to. The is little to NO waiting. The stylist gives u 100% of her attention from start to the dryer (she let me get my afternoon nap). I am a proud client.

I took my 3 year old daughter to get her hair done and teach me how to style her hair for an individual child class session, and it was excellent. Krika took her time to demonstrate and show me the proper techniques for various styles. She had me do the styles, as well. I feel a lot more confident in styling and doing more difficult styles. My daughter had a great time, and she even learned from the experience. I highly recommend Krika’s child hair care class.

I’m not sure where to put this but people have to know what type of people these are. I ordered several MHC products during a recent sale. I purchase my products based on ingredients due to skin allergies. I purchased products that had great ingredients but once I received my order, I found that several products were drastically misrepresented on their website. Their condition has silicones and their loc butter has emulsifying wax. Neither of these ingredients, and several others, where listed on their website. Due to their misrepresentation, I had an allergic reaction to an ingredient that was not listed. I told the seller/paypal that I wanted a refund for the conditioner and the loc butter. The seller wanted me to send it all back which I would have gladly done but PayPal said that I couldn’t because the item was used. So I’m stuck with their products that have silicones (I have trashed all their products). Thankfully I got a partial refund. What really annoys me is the absolute lack of professionalism and customer service. Their site is wrong and I was offered no apology. They even had the nerve to try and make me pay to return the products. I will NEVER buy, recommend, or touch another MHC product and from the online reviews and talk on hair boards, this line won’t be around much longer anyway.

My hair always looks and feels better when I leave her shop and she is very personable as well which is a bonus!

This is genuinely the best natural hair care salon I've ever been to. I've been coming to Krika for 3 years for hair trims and she is always pleasant, knowledgeable, and gentle with my hair. My hair truly thrives after seeing her for a simple trim. Krika has a true passion for caring for natural hair and it is evident in how meticulously and thoroughly she provides even the smallest service. Before this salon I've never been to a stylist who treats my hair with the same care and consideration as they would treat their own hair. I am very interested in booking her hair steaming service because I know my hair will benefit deeply from a more involved service from her nurturing hands. I REALLY appreciate that her services don't "break the bank" and are well priced for a dedicated naturalista like myself because so many other salons grossly overcharge for any services performed on natural hair. As long as we live in the Triangle area I will always have my hair cared for by Krika at Sophia Sunflower Salon!

Very professional and great atmosphere! Excellent service!!!

Her hours are great! She works quickly and efficiently. No double booking and long waits.

I was a newly natural when visiting her salon (which I advised her of). She was quiet majority of the time unless I asked her a question. I was expecting her to provide me with information on my hair as she was doing it without me having to pry it out of her.

Knowledgable Natural hair stylist.

Feb 05, 2018

I love my natural hair and Krika did a beautiful job on my BIG CHOP! I look forward to going back and getting more natural styles as my hair grows! A must salon for natural hair and so relaxing.

Scheduled an appointment for my 11 year old daughter. After confirming my appointment through email 2 days prior to our appointment date, I received a text the day of the appointment letting me know that if we would like to come in early she would be available. I received another text following the first asking me to again confirm my appointment. 10 minutes later my appointment was cancelled! How unprofessional! I was working that day and not able to respond quickly, but regardless I had already confirmed that I would be there. I call to find out if we could still come in and she says yes, she would be there. My daughter's hair is very thick and curly and just wanted her to make it more manageable. Well I ended up paying $105 for a trim, blow dry and some trial size products. She didn't even style her hair. I had to flat iron and style it when we returned home. She was very polite but I did not feel as if the services we received were anywhere close to $105 worth. Very disappointed!

Top notch service!!

I am currently in the transition stage. I have not done a big chop...just a little at a time. Sofia Sunflower products are great and Krika is very knowledgeable about natural hair. I value her advice and services.

Feb 05, 2017

Waste of money and time. My hair is very hard and she didn't know what she was doing. Seems like to me she can only do natural hairstyles. I wouldn't recommend for a blowout or any type of style using a flatiron.
